Requires HUD Inspector General to report on NYCHA non-compliance and conditions.
The Accountability for NYCHA Act of 2026 mandates the Inspector General of the Department of Housing and Urban Development to investigate the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA). The investigation must determine NYCHA's compliance with a 2019 agreement, review the Monitor's actions, survey housing conditions, and examine any waste, fraud, or abuse. The Inspector General must report findings to Congress within 180 days of the Act's enactment. The bill highlights NYCHA's failure to provide safe housing and its substantial default status.
